Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Diagon Alley, The Leaky Cauldron.

For most wizards, especially those from Muggle society, the Leaky Cauldron is their first stop into the wizarding world.

Alexis walked in the door and greeted Old Tom. 【Note】

"Hi, Old Tom."

Alexis waved.

Old Tom was reading a newspaper behind the bar. Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled at Alexis, shaking the newspaper in his hand.

"Nice job."

Old Tom responded to Alexis.

Alexis nodded and walked upstairs.

He was here for an appointment, and Lucius asked him to meet him here.

It has been two days since the Wizengamot trial ended. What he said after the trial was passed through various newspapers and spread throughout the wizarding world intact. Now, this storm is brewing.

But Alexis doesn't have the time to worry about these things. What he has to deal with now is Lucius.

Lucius asked him to meet him at the Leaky Cauldron, which was a signal, a not-so-good one.

Following the information on the note, Alexis found the corresponding house number and knocked on the door.

"Lucius."

There was a rustling sound from inside the door, and then the door was opened.

"come in."

Alexis walked into the room, looked around casually, and finally pulled up a chair and sat down.

The room was a little dark, and Lucius closed the curtains, which made the limited light even dimmer, making even the stabbing a little hazy.

"What's the matter?"

Alexis asked.

"What's the matter?" Lucius gritted his teeth and came to Alexis with red eyes. "You actually asked me what's the matter!"

"Have you read the newspaper?"

"How could you say such a thing in front of so many reporters!"

Lucius yelled uncontrollably, causing the veins on his neck to bulge out. He paced back and forth a little irritably, grabbed the newspaper on the bed and threw it to Alexis - Alexis then I saw clearly that the bed was covered with newspapers.

"Look what you said!"

"You've offended the entire Wizengamot!"

Alexis calmly folded the newspaper in half and placed it on the table nearby.

"so what?"

"so?"

"So why are you doing this?"

Lucius asked in disbelief.

"Our progress is obviously very good, why did you do this?"

Alexis tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said seriously, "If I said that I couldn't help it and was impulsive, would you believe it?"

Lucius and Alexis looked at each other for a moment, yelled, covered their faces with their hands, and almost collapsed on the bed.

"My God!"

he shouted

"I knew it!"

"They were right. Alexis."

"You have been protected so well by Nurmengard and Dumbledore. You have been so smooth along the way. You have not experienced any setbacks or blows at all. This makes you feel even the slightest grievance." unbearable."

He sat up again and said to Alexis

"Alexis, if you feel that you have been unfairly treated, if you feel wronged, or uncomfortable, or if you want to touch someone, you can come to me and discuss it with me instead of talking nonsense in front of so many reporters. .”

Alexis looked at Lucius quietly. Because Lucius was so excited, his neatly combed platinum-blonde hair was a little messy. A few strands of hair hung playfully in front of his eyes, swaying back and forth with him. One of them is still slightly tilted up.

"Lucius."

Alexis slowly put away her playful expression.

"What do you think I should do?"

"Suffer your anger?"

"Let those cerebral palsy control the Wizengamot?"

"The Wizengamot, the highest law enforcement agency in the wizarding world, ha! It's controlled by a group of people with cerebral palsy."

He slowly pulled out a copy of the Daily Prophet, unfolded it, and pointed to the paragraph above for Lucius to read.

"Look carefully, Lucius, my dear friend."

"Those people with cerebral palsy are openly clamoring to send me to prison for murder. They are contacting the Aurors."

"Ha. A few days ago, everyone was thanking me for killing Voldemort. A few days later, everyone wanted to convict me of intentional homicide because I killed Voldemort."

"Lucius, I can tell you for sure, this is not funny at all!"

"I won't let this happen!"

"forever!"

"Now you have two choices, Lucius, my dear friend."

"The first option is to leave here, forget all the plans we discussed, pretend that I have never been to Malfoy Manor that day, and pretend to be invisible to what I did from now on."

"For the sake of Narcissa and Black, I won't care."

"The second option is to put away your petty thoughts, fulfill your oath well, and stand on my side, even if I am facing the entire wizarding world."

Although Alexis never showed any signs of raising an army, Lucius didn't dare to gamble.

After his contact with Alexis during this period, he had a basic understanding of Alexis.

To him, Alexis was a lunatic.

Once this madman is angered, no one knows what he will do.

Playing with fire protection and fire spells in Malfoy Manor?Or go to the dragon's lair to install a door key leading directly to Malfoy Manor?

These were all too simple for Alexis, things he could accomplish easily.

But for the Malfoy family, it was a disaster.

As for the second option, facing the entire wizarding world?

"Lucius, I can tell you a secret."

As Lucius was thinking, Alexis's voice sounded again.

"During the sorting ceremony, the Sorting Hat sorted me into Slytherin, but you know, I had seen it in Dumbledore's office earlier, and I threatened it that if it didn't let me go to Hufflepuff, Burn it.”

"So, I went to Hufflepuff."

Faced with Lucius' gaze, Alexis bared her teeth.

"Actually, I have always known Slytherin students well. You like to weigh the pros and cons, but now, Lucius, you have to give up your Slytherin habit."

"What the hell are you going to do?"

Lucius asked in a deep voice.

"That's a good question, but before I get an answer, Lucius, I need to see your options."

Alexis looked at ease on the surface, but he was actually a little annoyed inside.

Screwed up, again!

Regardless of Grindelwald or Dumbledore, even Voldemort, whom he always despised, their followers are gathered together by faith.

At first he thought it would be easy, but when he actually did it, he found that it was not easy.

Even if Lucius chooses to continue the cooperative relationship now, is it really because of belief?

It was just about his threat to the Malfoy family.

It seems quite easy. Each of them has easily gained a large number of followers. How come he can only threaten them with force?

Alexis didn't even understand how things got to this point.
